The Scream

The Scream by Edvard Munch will not be everyone's favourite picture but this design shows just how subtle illusion knitting can be.

The hanging in the photographs measures approximately 86cm x 114 cm (34” x 45”) using DK yarn and 3.25mm needles and takes approximately 800 metres of each of two contrasting colours of yarn. It has been designed to be viewed from the side so is suitable for use as a wall hanging, bed cover or throw.

You can use any thickness of yarn. Different thicknesses will change the overall size of the piece.

The pattern includes several versions of the chart including one for mobile devices where you can see 20 ridges at a time and always see the numbers underneath.
